The lights in the room are dim, the flames are jumping and flickering, and the pony's gaze penetrates the flames, and those images of the years slowly reappear in the light and shadow......

"I have been an orphan since I was a child, and the majestic face of my stepfather is my earliest memory. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info My father-in-law never mentioned my life experience, and I never asked. At first, I didn't know how to ask, but then I didn't have to, because all the children in the yard where I lived were orphans, and occasionally when I asked, the result was the same: I picked them up on the side of the road, and I didn't know. ”

"Later, I learned that we don't need to know the past, and we don't have to think too much about it in the future. From the age of three to the beginning of martial arts, after the six-year-old auditions began all kinds of brutal training, until passing the assessment to perform various tasks, we have to face how to allow ourselves to see the next day's morning. ”

"The first time I met Xiao Leng was three days before the selection when I was six years old. The snow was falling that day, and the whole yard was white. There was a layer of ice on the surface of the lake, and more than a dozen of us children practiced on one foot on a wooden stake with the thick mouth of a bowl in the lake. The pile is alive, and if you lose your balance even slightly, you may fall over and fall into the lake. ”

"The time to stand on the pile is half an hour, and if you don't have time, no matter how many times you fall, you have to get up and start from scratch. Two hours had passed, and no one had been able to go back into the house, but no one dared to slack off. The people who can stand here are already carefully selected from the tens of millions of children to participate in the selection competition in three days, so no matter how hard and tired they are, they have to bear it. ”

"It's just that we all feel that this is not something that can be done at our age at all, and with this thought in our hearts, it is even more difficult to stand. ”

"My father-in-law appeared by the lake at that time, and there was a middle-aged man dressed as a scribe beside him, followed by a child of five or six years old, with sword eyebrows and white skin like snow. I had met the middle-aged scribe two or three times before, and he had come from the north, and each time he stayed for three days and then left, and I heard people call him 'Tempest', and he was said to be a very powerful character. ”

Seeing us staggering, my father-in-law frowned, and said to the big man who was supervising us that we were not allowed to eat dinner that did not meet the requirements, and that we should eat when it was finished. After saying that, I was about to leave with the wind, and I happened to fall down again, and I said loudly to my father-in-law, this is not something that can be done at our age, why do we have to do the impossible. ”

"When my father-in-law heard this, he turned around and looked at me with a blue face, and said, 'If I were you, I would do everything possible to complete the task, instead of being stupid and complaining here'. Then he said to the child behind the wind: 'Xiao Leng, you go and try it. The boy named Xiao Leng answered, and like a cheetah, he quickly rose and landed two or three times on the broken thin ice, and stood firmly on the stake beside me. The movements are capable and free, and there is a faint trend of wind and thunder. ”

I couldn't help but cheer in my heart, and at the same time wondered who this kid was, so skilled. I stood up again and greeted him, he looked at me, did not speak, closed his eyes and stood there like an old monk, his face was indifferent. ”

"And just by looking at it, I already noticed that his eyes were so special, as if there was an unreachable, unfathomable world in them, and there was an indescribable feeling. His eyes sparkled like the brightest stars in the night sky. ”

"Maybe it was the words of the stepfather that worked, or maybe it was Xiao Leng's perfect example that inspired everyone, and I think the latter is more responsible. If everyone can't do it, forget it, and suddenly there is a person who has done things well, and he can't do it himself, which naturally arouses the strength in his heart that does not admit defeat. ”

After an hour, everyone reached the training time one after another, and Xiao Leng stood motionless for an hour. It wasn't until the big man called him that he landed two or three more on the residual ice and came back to shore, and it seemed that it would be easy to stand for another hour. ”

"I was so shocked that we couldn't even support it for half an hour, but he was able to do it so easily, that concentration alone was much more than us, and a few ups and downs on thin ice, and his composure that didn't match his age was far from being comparable to us, and I even decided that he would be the first in the tryout three days later. ”

In fact, Xiao Leng, a teenager from the north, was born like a genius, stood out among more than 100 players from all over the world, easily passed the test, and won the first place with a perfect performance. ”

"I saw that the elders who watched were also shocked, approving, and even a little jealous. I heard a deep voice not far behind me say, 'This kid is only six years old and has such a cultivation, and in time, his martial arts achievements are really immeasurable!'"

"An old but long-breathed voice said: 'You see that his gestures and breath are running naturally, and there is a hidden wind and thunder, he is really a rare genius in a hundred years, and he will definitely be a generation of grandmasters who founded the sect in the future. It's just that he has now entered this way, even if he is a genius, he can't make a name for himself in future generations, which is really a pity. ’”

The deep voice added: 'How do you know if Seon lost his horse?' This kid seems to have something else in his eyes, and maybe it will be another creation in the future. ’”

"The old voice said: 'What Brother Meng said is extremely true, in addition to talent, those who can achieve great success have no bearing on the acquired efforts and the surrounding environment? ’”

"I have been with my father-in-law since I was a child, and I basically know these seniors, one of the two people who spoke was the 'Divine Sword' Meng Yishan, and the old voice was 'Sword Saint' Situ Ao, and I could get such beautiful words from them, which shows how shocking Xiao Leng's performance is. ”

"As for what he said about 'entering this way', it should mean that the road we will take in the future will be hidden and dark, and no matter how good you are, it will be hidden in the dead corner of history and not known to the world. ”

"As for what kind of organization we are and who we do things for, this is related to disciplinary issues and organizational secrets, and I can't tell you, but this will not affect your understanding of Xiao Leng. ”

"After the selection competition, our twelve winners from all over the world will enter the grueling and brutal grinding training, while the rest of the children will return to the rest of the country to continue their general training, except for a few who are eliminated due to poor qualifications, most of them will follow the same path in the future. You can't say this way, and you will all guess it when you say it. Monk, you don't have to look at me like that, I have a last resort. ”

"Ten days after the tryouts, 12 of us were taken to a place called 'Ghost Domain' for training. It was a frightening and fascinating place.

"The fear is that there will be a five-year brutal training there, many people can't carry it for three years, and there are only one in ten who can survive five years, and those who can survive it can undoubtedly become top masters, even if they can only carry it for two or three years, they can stand alone after they go out, so he fascinates us children who have received martial arts enlightenment since childhood. ”

"My friendship with Xiao Leng really started there. ”
